ROG G703 is a beast of a gaming laptop that has the power to take on today’s gaming desktops, thanks to its factory-overclocked 8th Generation Intel® Core™ i9 processor and overclockable NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080 graphics. G703 is the key that unlocks supreme levels of gaming, so you can play AAA games on Ultra graphics settings without compromises. Continually pushing the envelope, ROG has torn up the gaming laptop blueprint, becoming the first to integrate an ultra-responsive IPS-level 144Hz display with a 3ms response time into its laptops. G703 features HyperDrive Extreme storage, which uses exclusive technology to combine three NVMe PCI Express® (PCIe®) SSDs in RAID 0 configuration for read speeds of up to 8700MB/s, so games load up in a blink of an eye.

PERFORMANCE

REDEFINING THE GAMING LAPTOP

Simply saying that G703 has gaming desktop levels of performance* would be an understatement. It’s powered by a factory-overclocked Intel Core i9-8950HK that’s capable of hitting an incredible 4.8GHz — surpassing base speed by more than 10%! Similarly, its NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 GPU and 8GB of GDDR5X VRAM are factory-overclocked as well, and can reach speeds of up to 1974MHz and 10.3GHz respectively! This graphics prowess lets you enjoy the latest AAA titles at their maxed-out settings for immersive gaming experiences. The ROG-exclusive Gaming Center puts all this performance at your fingertips, with an intuitive dashboard that lets you push G703 to its limits with a mouse click.

* Actual performance may vary according to system configuration.

FACTORY-OVERCLOCKED CPU

Regular Intel Core i9 CPUs can reach speeds of up to 4.3GHz, but the factory-overclocked CPU that powers G703 hits 4.8GHz right out of the box — that’s a boost of over 11%! It runs 900MHz, or 23%, faster than the standard Intel Core i7-8750H CPUs used in most gaming laptops. It also supports Intel Hyper-Threading, Speed Shift, and Turbo Boost 2.0 technologies to handle every task quickly and efficiently.

KEYBOARD

AURA RGB LIGHTING

Exclusive Aura RGB lighting technology allows you to customize light effects right down to individual keys. You can even create unique color patterns for each game to help you find and master its controls. The keyboard used in G703 features N-key rollover and anti-ghosting technologies, and a highlighted WASD key group to provide precise control; while a 2.5mm travel distance, a 0.3mm keycap curve, and a durable anti-slip palm rest ensure you stay comfortable. In addition, unique hotkeys allow instant access to Xbox Game bar, ROG Aura, Gaming Center, and XSplit Gamecaster.

AURA SYNC

AURA SYNC FOR ULTIMATE PERSONALIZATION

Aura Sync technology gives you the freedom to customize and sync up light effects with Aura Sync-supported gaming mice, headsets, and other peripherals to give your entire gaming setup a consistent look and feel. With a full spectrum of colors to choose from, as well as eight different lighting modes that can be accessed via the Aura control panel, Aura Sync technology lets you express your gaming persona, or the feel of the game you’re currently playing.

THERMAL

ANTI-DUST COOLING SYSTEM

The patented Anti-Dust Cooling (ADC) system enables G703 to clean itself of harmful dust and particles. Acting like an immune system, dust, dirt and other particles are ejected from the chassis through two dedicated tunnels via centrifugal force, preventing build-up in the thermal fins to increase system stability and lifespan. Two high-performance, dual-outlet fans blow air through ultrathin fins, while the unique heat-pipe architecture cools the CPU, GPU and chipset power components independently.

ANTI-DUST COOLING SYSTEM

The ADC system is a patented centrifugal fan module with two anti-dust tunnels. It works on the principle of centrifugal force, which acts on any object moving in a circular path, pushing it away from the center from which it is moving. Dust and other particles in the fan module are blown along the fan walls, and eventually out of the chassis through the anti-dust tunnels. This prolongs the lifespan and increases the stability of the system. Fan noise also decreases since the fans aren’t overworked.

UPGRADED 12V FANS

Compared to regular 5V fans, the two powerful 12V fans found in G703 spin 20% faster, improve airflow by up to 41%, and increase air pressure by up to 92%. In order for regular 5V fans to achieve the same performance, it requires more power, thus making the system unstable — a major disadvantage when in the midst of a fierce firefight.

ULTRATHIN FIN DESIGN

The special copper alloy cooling fins used in G703 are just 0.1mm thin — half the thickness of regular fins. Narrower fins allow for more fins to be used in the cooling module, this increases the surface area for heat dissipation by up to 16%, while at the same time reducing air resistance by 7%.

FAN OVERBOOST

While the dynamic fans automatically adjust their speed according to CPU and GPU temperatures, you also have the option to select the Overboost, default Auto, or Silent modes to suit the situation at hand. A single press of the function key allows you to quickly and easily regulate fan performance to control noise levels and power consumption. Fan Overboost is the most aggressive setting, providing the fastest fan speed for the cooling required to fully exploit the power of G703. Silent mode lowers the fan speed, ideal when you’re after some peace and quiet.

MULTIPLE COMPONENT COOLING

The unique heat-pipe design cools not only the CPU and GPU independently to avoid thermal throttling, but also keeps chipset power components below 80°C — increasing system reliability and lifespan.

CONSOLE GAMING

XBOX INTEGRATION

It’s time to break boundaries between gaming platforms. G703 has exclusive Xbox features to offer a combination of unparalleled computing power and gaming console-like convenience. The integrated Xbox Wireless module lets you connect up to eight Xbox One controllers without the need for an external USB dongle, while the Xbox hotkey fires up the Xbox Game bar, so you’re ready to record and broadcast gameplay, or hook up with friends on Xbox Live across Xbox One, Windows 10, tablet and smartphone. You can even play Xbox Play Anywhere digital titles on either Xbox One or Windows 10, at no additional cost. Your progress, including all save points, add-ons and achievements, goes with you.

AUDIO

AMP UP YOUR AUDIO

With an incredible 32-bit/384kHz sound output, ESS® Sabre delivers a sample rate that’s 8x greater than CD quality, for richer and more detailed audio experiences.G703 delivers an unmatched sound experience. Two 2W tweeters located at the base of the display channel high-frequency audio waves directly towards you while two large, 3W woofers in the chassis reflect sound off of the table to deliver a perfectly balanced sound spectrum ranging from low to high frequencies. Further, smart amplifier technology protects the speakers while boosting in-game volume up to 200% with increased dynamic range and bass. The Sonic Studio III audio suite simulates a 7.1-channel surround-sound signal for an immersive and accurate 3D audio experience, even on standard stereo headphones. In addition, Sonic Radar III uses audio cues to provide you with an onscreen overlay to pinpoint the enemy’s exact location even before you make contact.

Sonic Studio III
